Are you serious?

So I posted my most popular blog on WordPress and it vanishes from one day to the other. This is the modern world: all technology. The new world has its benefits but, for the most part, it’s just monkey crap.

For instance, back before the 1970’s, cars were fixable by their owners. Now it’s all about the computer. You open the hood and it’s a 15,000 piece jigsaw puzzle. I still have a hard time figuring out which oil goes where. Simplicity was stupendous. You had three or four television channels. That’s it. Don’t like what they’re playing? Go outside with the hula hoop. Finally, you had vinyl (shellac) records. Tangible round objects with grooves that played music when you placed the needle on it. Elementary.

Complications all over. Beef was beef not genetically modified organisms. Sodas had real sugar not sweeteners. Students used pencils, paper, books, and, occasionally, pens and crayons (if you were really young). Now you have laptops and common core math which is the most inane invention since fiberglass cars.

And don’t get me started with music. I could write volumes on this subject matter.

All I know is that in this new “Big Brother” world, nothing is sacred.
